Cat London is a multi-talented singer, songwriter, actress, improv comedian that writes and performs in a genre fluid style. Cat performs with a 4-piece dark-pop conglomeration backed on stage and in the studio by Rich Aveo (piano/vocal), Paul O’Keeffe (bass), and Anthony Freda (drums). London has shared the stage with world renowned performers like Bob Weir (Grateful Dead), Jeffrey Gaines, Bobby Bandiera (Bon Jovi), Garland Jeffreys, John Eddie, Glen Burtnik, The Head and The Heart, and Hey Ocean. She has performed at legendary venues like the Hard Rock San Francisco, Bearsville Theater, Stone Pony, Count Basie Theater, State Theater, Strand Theater, Carnegie Hall, and Rockwood Music Hall.
In this podcast, Cat performs a solo acoustic version of her track "Involved," a song that was submitted and accepted by the casting directors of television show "The Song," making London a successful entrant and finalist for its pilot episode. During filming, London was on set with Lisa Loeb, Eliot Sloan (Blessid Union of Souls), Andrew Copeland (Sister Hazel), Shelly Peiken (wrote "Bitch" and "What a Girl Wants"), and other industry names. The Song is a competition based show for songwriters and is still in development phases.
Cat is also half of the improv comedy duo Cat and Vegas and the Temple of Boom, a snazzy musical improv comedy duo performing on-the-spot songs inspired by a live audience's suggestions! In this episode, Ming tosses Cat a key word that Cat instantly turns into a song on the spot. Of course as payback for putting Cat on the spot, she got me out of my comfort zone and into a little improv session of my own!
